Moving to 7.2 - this is for the long-term solution, whereas BZ 1117170 is for the more immediate term solution for 7.1 This is also a RHEV bug, instead of a RHEL bug. *** Bug 1186989 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Does BZ 1333627 also fixes this? That is, replacing "../<img>/<vol>" with "<vol>" in backing file field of qcow2 header. https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/57284/ (In reply to Germano Veit Michel from comment #6) > Does BZ 1333627 also fixes this? > > That is, replacing "../<img>/<vol>" with "<vol>" in backing file field of > qcow2 header. > > https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/57284/ It mitigates the need to make any changes in qemu so yes we can probably close this. Closing this (WONTFIX), per Comment #6 and Comment #7. Fixing it in the upper layers so the condition doesn't occur is the proper solution, as well. |
